I'd like to make a cake..or if necessary a pie/torte...for my friend's Mom,who's turning 70...she doesn't eat much sugar,and is pretty "organic"...and has arthritis...not too much sugar or acid,from what she's said...I'm wondering about making curd with agave syrup...to avoid the sugar..and can I make a cake with maple/agave syrup instead of sugar...she won't eat much,but I'd still like to try..
Thanks!

Perhaps a Maple Pecan Pie.

The maple is more "Organic" than Corn Syrup, plus you can add MORE Pecans to cut down on the sweetness on the pie.

thanks..I was thinking of either Maple syrup,or Agave....just not sure "What"...maybe stacked layers...a cookie-like crust...then fruit and I don't know...If I put in THIN cake layers...can I make mango curd,for example,with agave?

What about a pavlova (cake size) with fresh fruit on the top?
